McIntosh C 352 vs. Bel Canto evo


I just got some new 1.6 Maggies and I'm looking to replace my older Mac amp ( MC 2200 )with a "high current" unit with lots of headroom. I've listened to the MC 352, but am told a digital amp like the Bel Canto will work better.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

If you like your 2200, you will LOVE the 352. It is more of the same but much cleaner and more authority (I know the 2205 pretty well). The MC352 is one of the best amps I have ever heard. One day I will have one. You will finally get some beautiful Mc blue meters too!

The Bel Canto (original 200 I think it was) was too lean and cool for me but it was auditioned out of context. Take care - Arthur
